Ten Tailed Fox

Chapter 238 Secret
"By the way, Elder Sister, did the person who came with you yesterday mention the name 'Gu Ben Lian'?"

Gu Yueti suddenly asked.

"Is there? You heard wrong."

Su Bujin thumped, and said without changing his face.

If something is missed and someone discovers Cheng Xiongba's identity, then she will be in bad luck with her.

"That's right, maybe, but... Speaking of my uncle Gu Benlian, it made me guess the possibility of the murderer."

Gu Benji thought for a while and said.

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Su Bujin asked in a daze.

"Gu Benlian is my father's elder brother, my uncle, and also the patriarch of the Honghu clan back then, but because he was killed by the barbarian king, my father inherited the position of patriarch."

Gu Yuetiao began to tell about the past.

"When my father first took over, there were a lot of voices of dissatisfaction among the clan. One reason was that my father was too young, and it was because of the rumors in the clan that my father and the barbarian king had planned to collude for a long time. Wanted to murder my uncle."

"It is naturally impossible for my father to do that kind of despicable and nasty thing, so in order to suppress the voices of opposition and rumors in the clan, my father had to marry three concubines, because they are all in the clan. He has a strong background, and with their support, my father can securely take the position of patriarch."

"After so many years, my father is no longer the young man who still needs external force. Under his leadership, the Honghu clan has become stronger and stronger, and its position among the nine monster clans has become more and more stable. , father's prestige is getting higher and higher, and the voice of opposition is getting smaller and smaller, until it disappears."

"However, the death of the third and fourth wives reminded me of the death of my uncle Gubenlian 100 years ago. This should be the motive of the murderer. I think it is very likely that someone in the clan has a grudge against the death of my uncle. In my heart, so I killed my father's two wives to avenge him."

Lonely Moon said.

"But if he hates your father, why doesn't he just kill your father? What's the use of killing his two wives?"

Su Bujin asked.

"Elder Sister, no matter how you say it, my father is the patriarch of the Honghu clan. No one in the entire clan can beat him. If the murderer wants to kill my father, there is basically no possibility of success, and without the support of the three wives, My father can't sit on the position of patriarch either, maybe that's why the murderer took his anger out on my father's three wives."

Lonely Moon said.

"It makes sense."

Su Bujin nodded.

"Since you suspect that someone wants to avenge your dead uncle, is the murderer someone related to your uncle?"

Su Bujin said.

Since the other party wanted to avenge Gu Benlian, it meant that this person should have a close relationship with Gu Benlian, otherwise why would he avenge Gu Benlian?

"I've thought about that too."

"Then does your uncle have any relatives alive?"

Su Bujin asked.

If calculated according to this, then the murderer is most likely to be a lonely relative.

"Yes, my uncle's wife is still there, and he has a daughter."

Lonely Moon said.

"Is it possible that they were them? Once Gu Benlian died, they became helpless orphans and widows. Coupled with the rumors in your clan at that time, it is normal for them to hate your father."

Su Bujin guessed.

"No, probably not. After my uncle died, my father treated their mother and daughter very well, and even visited them from time to time. It's just that."

Speaking of this, Gu Yueti hesitated again.

"Just what?"

Su Bujin's complexion changed, and he asked.

"It's just that my uncle's wife went crazy after my uncle's death. She was crazy all day long. It seemed that she was mentally hit by the death of my uncle, and my uncle's daughter was also frightened by the death of my uncle, so she went crazy. Got a strange disease that never grows up."

Lonely Moon said.

"A strange disease that doesn't grow up?"

Su Bujin was startled for a moment.

"Yeah, after a full 100 years, she hasn't grown up a bit, and she is still the same as 100 years ago. You said it's not a strange disease, but what is it?"

Lonely Moon said.

"Is there such a thing?"

This is the first time Su Bujin heard of this strange disease.

But can being frightened cause this strange disease?
Su Bujin felt that things were definitely not that simple.

"Master, do you suspect that they are murderers?"

Gu Yue asked.

"Haven't you ever suspected it?"

Su Bujin asked back.

"Don't tell me, I have thought about this possibility before, because their mother and daughter are indeed suspected, but I am sure that my aunt is really crazy, she is definitely not pretending, she can't pretend, As for my younger sister, she is too young to kill anyone at all."

Gu Yueti said with certainty.

A little girl, a crazy woman, they don't have the strength to do it, how could they be the murderer?
"It's not impossible"

Su Bujin secretly said in her heart.

Although she has never met the mother and daughter, she also knows that she cannot let go of any clues.

Maybe that woman really pretended to be crazy for 100 years?
Isn't it possible?
Anyone will hide, just like Ouyang Zhou, who has been stared at and humiliated for 20 years, just for the moment when he will show his fangs 20 years later.

There is no shortage of lunatics in this world.

100 years, it is not impossible.

So don't underestimate anyone, the less threatening the person on the surface, the more careful you are, because the reason why he is not threatening is to show you on purpose.

But Su Bujin didn't say these words out loud, after all, she was an outsider, so she couldn't speculate about other people's family affairs without authorization.

"That's all right, big sister, I'll investigate this matter first."

Lonely Moon said.

"Wait, can I help with the past?"

Su Bujin asked.

"I don't want to bother you about this, it's my family business after all."

Gu Yuetiao politely refused.

In the final analysis, it was his family business, so it didn't make sense for Su Bujin, an outsider, to get involved.

"You'd better take me to have a look. After all, I live in your house. It's a bit embarrassing not to help you with some facts."

Su Bujin said.

"This"

Excuse me?
Gu Yueti heard Su Bujin say these four words for the first time.

Are you still embarrassed?

I have known Su Bujin for so long, even though I haven't had much contact with her, Gu Yueti also understands Su Bujin's personality very well.

If Su Bujin would be embarrassed, pigs could go to heaven.

Gu Yueti naturally wouldn't believe that Su Bujin was telling the truth.

"That's it. If you need my help, just call me. Let's go."

Regardless of Gu Yueti's answer or not, Su Bujin dragged Gu Yueti away directly.
